What did you start at the server side? It should be the `vncserver` script
(NOT in /etc/... subdirectories!).

That gives you a ~/.vnc/ subdirectory, including a xstartup file. search the
archive on starting gnome or kde from ~/.vnc/xstartup.

Xvnc is just an other Xserver at your unix machine. You can use every window
manager.

Have a look at the setup at
http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp for a Xvnc
installation that actually uses the same window manager as at the console.
